Legislation |
Together with the Government, it is the Assembly of the
Republic that has the competence to draw up national
legislation. When legislative texts containing legislative
rules are passed by the Parliament, they become known as
Decrees of the
Assembly of the Republic, and then, once they have
been enacted by the President of the Republic, as
Laws of the
Republic.
(Government legislation is issued in the form of
Executive Laws).
In this part of the website we aim to highlight the
fundamental texts on politico-parliamentary life, because
being familiar with them is one of the basic criteria for
undertaking a full and participative citizenship.
It is also possible to directly access the legislative procedure
database and to use it to search all the legal texts
passed by
the Assembly of the Republic, including the legislative
ones, since the 1st Legislature.
In addition to the laws that are seen as structural cores of
politico-parliamentary activities, the importance of the
Rules of Procedure of the Assembly of the Republic has also
earned them a place here. Even though they are not a law,
inasmuch they are passed in the form of a Resolution of the
Assembly of the Republic, they list the rules governing the
internal organisation, modus operandi and procedures that
enable the Assembly of the Republic to exercise the
competences with which it is charged by the Constitution of
the Portuguese
Republic.
